Hey guys
I would like to know what you guys think about the Dragon Soul ranged weapons. I am playing a survival hunter.
Which one is better.
Vishanka, Jaws of the Earth LFR or Horrying Horn Arbalest Normal
Femaledwarf is telling me that Horrying Horn Arbalest is better. But I have too much haste already, so the un-reforged haste is useless from Horrying.
Can you please reply what you think about it?

Horrifying Horn Arbalest is the one that I would use since it´s 7 ilvl higher which means a few extra points of agility and also a higher weapon damage :)

If you are a troll:
Vishanka 390 > Arbalest 397

Vishanka 403 > Arbalest 410

If you are not Troll, a higher lvl Ranged Weapon is always better.

Why do you say if you are not a Troll?

Arbalest doesnt count as a bow and i think trolls have a bonus dmg with bows or something like that.

You'd think they would just apply it to all hunter ranged weapons, why not right? =/

Meh, i know dwarves have a bonus with guns only too :P...
But something is right, especially while playing marksman the weapon's ilvl is quite important, as almost all our abilities deal damage depending of a % of our weapon damage. That is a little less true when you play Survival for example.. Where black arrows and explosive shot are not weapon dmg based. But it might still be true. (For both specs I excluded serpent sting, but you know that's not weapon damage based.)

I have vishanka in LFR mode and is waiting to get the normal mode's, but if I'd get the arbalest before acquiring vishanka, i would probably switch to it while waiting, and even better... IF i loot the heroic version of that arbalest, i would completly ignore vishanka's normal mode..

But you have to keeep in mind that we are not all the same kind of players and depending on our gameplay style and stats prioritizing, it could go otherwise.
